Before Nebraska and Saint Louis faced each other in their season opening volleyball match Friday, the Huskers and their home crowd observed a moment of silence in honor of former Saint Louis volleyball player Megan Boken.

The game was carried on the Big Ten Digital Network and you can watch the moment in the video in this post.
